It started with my lack in the ability to draw and my impatience to sit and write a fully comprehensible novel. Photography gave me a door into the world of creativity and since I've opened it, I have discovered the true meaning of beauty, color, and light. It has given me the ability to see the potential in everything, from the simplicity of a wet leaf after a morning storm, to the majestic heights of big city skyscrapers.

As owner of Hollywood Breeze Photography, this internationally published plus-sized pin-up model and photographer has had more than her fair share of developing negatives.

After a divorce equal parts tragic, freeing and motivating, Hollywood Breeze realized something only emotionally charged relationships can teach us: some people need to be shot. So, a star was born helping provide an artist relief to a wide range of audiences throughout her San Fernando Valley (CA) hometown.

A firm believer that beauty comes in all shapes, sizes and costs, Hollywood Breeze accommodates her clientele with an onsite hair and make-up team at each shoot, luxurious costumes and props, and customized themes that make reaching those beautiful ideals less back breaking and bank busting. Her all inclusive services from Cheesecake Pin-ups to Divas (with Devils Food?!) have made this easy-going, charm-school dropout the talk of the town! Her talents include portraits, events, and lifestyle (plus a few more honed talents not suitable for print).
When asked her motivations, a sly smile parts her ruby lips - "Well..." she says, "because everyone is bound to get shot in Hollywood"

Every month we feature a different group of artists. We print their photos or other artwork on wood and display it at one of our gallery locations. And then at the end of the showing the artists get to keep the prints. All for free! It's great for everyone. If you'd like to submit your work for consideration.

Hi! My name is Seth and I love this little blue ball we call earth. While not a professional photographer, photography has become one of my greatest passions and constantly influences how I view landscapes. It has been an interest of mine since I was 14 but it wasn't until my Junior year in college where I began to focus on it more intently. You will mostly find me outdoors shooting the landscape with my camera or drone, or in Laguna Beach where I work for a Landscape Architecture firm as a designer. However, no matter where I am my camera isn’t far behind, always ready for the next adventure.

The Tustin Focal Point Artists for February 2017 have been announced. We are so excited to support another awesome group of creatives! Come by and check out their artwork! While you're there grab some delicious food and drink from this popular mom and pop marketplace!

My personal mission statement: "To spread joy and create beautiful things." I'm a photographer, but I'm also a distance runner, kayaker, fly angler, musician, and so much more. I smile a lot, and seek out beauty in ordinary and everyday things. I sleep too much, run a lot, and drink a ton of coffee. I have a fabulously mustachioed husband, Brian, and an adorable Jack Russell terrier, Abbie. Fantastic music, incredible wine, fancy dancing, good whiskey, and great beer are much appreciated in our Wisconsin home- we live a few blocks from the river and spend as much time in it as possible.
